I'd like to, once again, remind you of the discussion session on
"Implications of the proposed WirelessHUMAN PAR on the 802 wireless
program" next Monday night from 8:00-9:30 pm
<http://ieee802.org/16/human/WirelessHUMAN_tutorial2.pdf>. I will
coordinate and moderate.
Some 802 participants apparently believe that this PAR is not in the
best interests of 802; others believe that it would be better off
within 802.11 <http://ieee802.org/16/human/par_comments.html>. The
disposition of the PAR lies with the 802 Executive Committee.
I believe that the Monday evening session will strongly influence the
outcome of the PAR. I have asked our WirelessHUMAN team to prepare
presentations, and I set up a web area
<http://www.egroups.com/group/wirelesshuman> for this purpose. So
far, I haven't seen many signs of life on this topic.
If anyone cares to speak on behalf of the current WirelessHUMAN PAR
and/or present responses to concerns that have been raised, I suggest
that you prepare a presentation and ask me for agenda time. It would
certainly help if the WirelessHUMAN team would organize a coherent
presentation or set of presentations, but that remains up to the
Study Group to organize.
I think that the current situation calls for a serious response to
the issues by those who support the PAR; anything less may endanger
its success.
